Limits and caveats
- These are Unicode math symbols, not a font: screen readers may read them as symbol names or skip them, and in-app search may not match them.
- Fraktur is hard to read for many people, so keep it to short words; digits and Arabic stay as typed.
Questions about this tool
What is Fraktur?
A gothic blackletter style used in German printing for centuries; mathematicians use it for some quantities, which is why it is in Unicode.
Is it the same as Old English text?
It looks very similar and people search for both names, but technically these are the math Fraktur symbols.
Can I use it for a tattoo design?
It works for a quick preview, but ask the artist for a real blackletter font, since glyph details vary between devices.
